Episode 64 – For some reason, I ended up going to the pool with the riajus ①

—The heat is crazy.

The hot air was boiling like steam from the poolside, so hot that I could almost hear the sizzling sound.

Just looking at it makes my blood boil and evaporate.

…This weather is tough for an indoor person.

I held my hands up and squinted in the brilliant sunlight.

Then I looked at the young people milling around nearby and sighed.

They seemed to be enjoying themselves, and their mood was very different from mine.

They are truly enjoying their lives and are in the prime of their youth.

Well, next to me, there are more enjoyers who are enjoying it … no, there are winners in life …

“Towa is so fair and slender. I envy you!”

“What are you envious of…? It’s simply that I’m not manly enough…”

Kenichi is tall and muscular.

His well-toned body looks amazing even from a boy’s point of view.

From head to toe, there is nothing to be disappointed about. He is as handsome as a picture.

“Is that so? There are quite a few people who like slender rather than muscular.”

“‘Slender’ sounds good, but in my case, it’s just thin, okay? You could even call me weak. But to be honest, I’m not in demand…”

“In my eyes, you are!”

“I’m not pleased to hear that…”

If you say something like that, people will think you’re a homosexual, won’t they?

I don’t know if Fuji-san will tell me off later…

I mean…

“…The two of them are slow…”

I stared blankly at the entrance to the women’s locker room.

Since earlier, a number of strangers have come out, but Rin and Fuji-san have not come out for a while.

Does it really take this long for girls to change clothes?

“Hey, Kenichi. If this is the case, we should have stayed in the changing room. There’s no need to change as quickly as possible and wait in the hot sun like this…”

“You’re too naive. It’d be like smearing honey on ice cream.”

He waved his fingers from side to side and said, ‘Tsk tsk’.

I wonder why that is…

His irresistible motion makes me angry…

“…What do you mean?”

“Well, think about it. This is a swimming pool, and there are a lot of people like that.”

Kenichi turned his gaze to the enjoyer from earlier and urged me to look.

I look over at him as he prompts me.

Then the people from earlier were just talking to a woman.

“They’re meeting up?”

“Idiot! Take a closer look… see how the girl’s face is slightly drawn?”

“Ah, if you ask me… maybe she’s being hit on?”

“That’s what I’m talking about.”

“No, I don’t know someone could do it… something like that.”

He approached her himself, was rejected, and broke his own heart…

I don’t think I can do it.

I mean, I’d talk to her and she’d say, ‘You’re trying hit on girls with that face? Why don’t you go die’. I’m sure she’d say something like that.

“That’s why we have to keep waiting, no matter how late the girls come out, to not make them feel uncomfortable. If it’s hard to picture, imagine what will happen when Kotone and Wakamiya come out of the locker room.”

“That’s right…”

Two beautiful girls come out of the locker room…

A swarm of men and the attention of those around them…

“…This is going to be a noisy affair.”

“It seems you understand.”

“Ah…”

“That’s why I’m standing right in front of the changing room, so I can call out to them as soon as they come out. I don’t want them to have a bad time at the pool.”

“As expected of a handsome guy…”

Perfectly caring.

A perfect appearance.

There’s no other choice then to emulate Kenichi.

When the two of them came out, if Kenichi headed towards them, the men around him would understand that they were no match for him.

So this is the ‘Riaju guard…’

If you can’t beat Kenichi’s specs, you can’t talk to them.

At best, they would look at him with envy and say something bitter while pointing their fingers.

Well, I’d be more of a ‘magnet to pick up’ rather than a deterrent…

There’s only so much you can win…

I look sideways at Kenichi, who has a cool face.

Kenichi muttered, ‘It’s about time,’ and moved to the exit of the women’s changing room.

The women who come out from there turn red when they see Kenichi and stop for a while.

Some of them even let out a ‘cool’ and admired him.

“Don’t use ogle them… Kenichi.”

I turned my gaze to react to the dissatisfied voice.

Fuji-san, who was there, swelled her cheeks and looked to blame Kenichi.

Fuji-san’s swimsuit was a one-piece type, and her hair was in a cute bun.

“No, I’m not! I’m only interested in Kotone.”

“…Idiot.”

“That bathing suit looks good on you. Is that a new one?

“…Yeah. I just bought it…”

“You look cute, Kotone.”

“T-thank you…”

When she was told that, Fuji-san’s ears turned red and her face fell, and she approached Kenichi.

Then she twined her arm around his so that they were attached to her arms.

…What are they showing me?

This lovey-doveyness makes my back itch.

Perhaps feeling the same way I did, the enjoyer from earlier seemed somewhat frustrated.

It’s a perfect composition of a handsome man and a beautiful girl…

Oh, one of them is crying in frustration…

I understand … that feeling … but I have to give up what I can’t do…

“Ano… Towa-kun…”

As soon as I heard her voice, she grabbed my hand.

I didn’t notice it because of the way I was looking at the two of them.

I turned around and looked at Rin.

The closeness of the distance made the area in view more pronounced.

I saw her in her swimsuit beforehand at the store.

So I thought I wouldn’t be nervous and that I would be fine.

But it’s not the same…

The last time I saw her in a bathing suit, she had her long blonde hair in twin tails, which she wore in a bun.

And the sun’s rays fall on the white skin, making it look dazzling, as if it were reflected.

The special stage of the pool made the swimsuit even more attractive.

The goddess who descended… is too destructive, isn’t she…

The people around me, as well as myself, lost track of time as we gazed at her.
